Instructions
Melt butter in heavy small saucepan over medium-high heat.
Whisk in brown sugar and cream; bring to boil.
Add lime juice, lime peel and salt. Boil until sauce is reduced to 3/4 cup, whisking occasionally, about 2 minutes. Set caramel-lime sauce aside.
Place 1/3 cup sorbet in each of 4 parfait glasses or wineglasses. Top sorbet with 1/4 cup pineapple, 1/4 cup mango, 2 tablespoons coconut, 2 tablespoons sauce and 1/3 cup ice cream.
Sprinkle each parfait with 1 tablespoon coconut and drizzle with 1 tablespoon sauce.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Moscato Dasti, Port
Cream Sherry, Moscato d'Asti, and Port are my top picks for Frozen Dessert. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. The NV Solera Cream Sherry with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 17 dollars per bottle.
NV Solera Cream Sherry
The Solera Cream Sherry has a brilliant amber and deep copper hue. With butterscotch and pecan aromas, the sweet salted nut and brown spice aromas carry a complex caramel accent. A sweet entry leads to a rounded, lush, moderately full-bodied palate with a lengthy, flavorful finish.
